They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Truth Social Scraper Scrape **Truth Social** profiles and posts ("truths") via the public Mastodon-fork API. No login, no API key. Two modes: - **profile** — handle(s) in, profile metadata + recent truths out - **post** — specific post URLs in, full post records out ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `mode` | String (required) | `profile` or `post`. | | `handles` | Array | Usernames without @ (profile mode). | | `postUrls` | Array | Full truthsocial.com post URLs (post mode). | | `maxPostsPerProfile` | Integer | Default 40, max 200. | ### Output ```json { "kind": "post", "id": "112857...", "url": "https://truthsocial.com/@user/posts/112857...", "username": "realDonaldTrump", "displayName": "Donald J. Trump", "content": "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!", "createdAt": "2026-05-27T15:00:00.000Z", "likes": 50000, "reblogs": 12000, "replies": 3400, "mediaCount": 1, "media": [{ "type": "image", "url": "https://..." }] } ```` ### Pricing $0.0005/post. If this actor helped you, please leave a review on the Apify Store. # Actor input Schema ## `mode` (type: `string`): What to scrape: profile (account + recent posts) or post (specific post URLs). ## `handles` (type: `array`): Truth Social usernames without @ (e.g. 'realDonaldTrump'). ## `postUrls` (type: `array`): Full truthsocial.com post URLs. ## `maxPostsPerProfile` (type: `integer`): Default 40 (one API page). Max 200. ## `debug` (type: `boolean`): Verbose logging. ## Actor input object example ```json { "mode": "profile", "handles": [ "realDonaldTrump" ], "postUrls": [], "maxPostsPerProfile": 40, "debug": false } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): Profile rows include id/username/displayName/followers/following/postsCount; post rows include id/username/content/likes/replies/reblogs/createdAt/url. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "handles": [ "realDonaldTrump" ], "postUrls": [] }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("gio21/truth-social-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
